Benchtop NMR has many advantages over similar analytical techniques due to its high degree of chemical specificity, especially when combining information from multiple chemical nuclei. Minimal or no sample preparation and quick data generation allows the deployment of benchtop NMR in QA/QC environments without the need for operation by R&D scientists. This saves significant time and money. One example is in the quality control of reaction feedstocks which are the raw chemical materials required to supply large-scale chemical manufacturing processes.
